Most of us probably know of MS Excel for storing data in an organised manner. For those who regularly use it, it is much more than rows, columns and facilitating calculations. But do you know the spreadsheet app can actually be used to make art? A Twitter user named Planet Dave has utilised his time in quarantine to make some artwork in MS Excel. He made a painting of 'Distracted boyfriend' using the app and it is so impressive that even the maker company Microsoft is impressed by his skills. The guy's painting using an Excel chart is now going viral on social media. Working From Home Amid Coronavirus Outbreak? Twitterati Come Up With Great Makeshift Desk Ideas to Deal With WFH.

Twitter user Planet Dave (@_daviant) made two paintings, using MS Excel. In the first one, he showed a man analysing some stocks with a very detailed economic background. But it is his second piece of making a painting of a meme format that has caught more eyes. What he calls as "stupid Excel chart" is now being appreciated as a great piece of art on Twitter. Even Microsoft took notice of his skills and commented, "Wow. WOWWWWWWW. You've done important work here." The tweet has since then gone viral with close to 26,000 retweets and 1.2 lakh likes. Distracted Boyfriend Meme Has a Lesbian Climax We Never Saw Coming! Twitter Explodes… As Expected.
